The Living Room Lie
Breaking Free: Unmasking the Illusion of the Living Room Lie
Lyrics
You don't live in your living room
You don't truly experience life within your home's confines.
You watch other people pretend to live on a flashing screen
You observe others' fabricated lives on a television or screen.
I see the light show in your window as I walk by
Passing by, I notice the artificial illumination in your window.
Your living room is a lie
Your living space presents a false representation.
There's no life in becoming a shadow
There's no fulfillment in merely being unseen and unnoticed.
Walking away from the world outside
Avoiding engagement with the real world.
Into a light that's not real
Entering a deceptive brightness.
You don't live in your living room
You don't fully engage in life within your residence.
You hide away from the friends you're too afraid to make
Avoiding interactions due to fear of forming connections.
I see your sorrow in your doorway
I notice your sadness as I approach your entrance.
And painted over loneliness that spilled out on your porch
Masking your loneliness that spills over visibly.
Your living room is a lie
Your home conceals the truth about your life.
There's no life in becoming a shadow
No fulfillment in staying invisible.
Walking away from the world outside
Avoiding the external world.
Into a light that's not real
Entering a false illumination.
I hope you break free and learn to live and think outside the box
Encouragement to break free from limitations and societal norms.
The box that rules the world
Reference to societal constraints.
And live through your own eyes
To experience life from your own perspective.
Not someone else's lies
Avoid living based on others' falsehoods.
I hope you break free and learn to live and think outside the box
Reiteration of breaking free from societal confines.
The box that rules the world
Reference again to societal constraints.
And live through your own eyes
Encouragement to live authentically.
Not someone else's lies
Rejecting others' deceptive narratives, embracing your truth.
